Ten Scented Man Candles For Your Manly Bachelor Pad

By and large, homes have always included certain areas that men prefer to inhabit. Masculine zones have been named game rooms, offices, workshops or even smoking rooms. These territories tend to have more masculine furnishings and artifacts.

Nowadays, the manly character of these spaces has revealed itself, and we freely call the male zone a “man cave.” Man caves have characteristics that appeal more to men and by design do not attract women. Scented man candles will enhance male only environments by reproducing aromas enjoyed by males more than females.

Scented man candles are the perfect manly gift item for men who are fortunate enough to have exclusive male territories in their bachelor pads or homes. Man candles are frequently made of Soy wax which is non-toxic and cleaner burning than paraffin wax. Soy candles do not produce petrol-carbon soot which can blacken walls and ceilings, and contaminate ventilation duct work.

The Black Amber Jar Candle comes in an attractive black apothecary jar or a reusable tin. Reported to smell like a crackling fire, it has more of a hardwood aroma than evergreen. The Black Amber Jar Man Candle blends Dark Amber, Orange Blossom and Olibanum.

Olibanum is also known as frankincense and will boost the immune system and improve a somber mood. The hand poured soy wax blended with essential oils is the color of charcoal which looks great in its black and white jar. The wooden wick helps disseminate fragrance and delivers a mesmerizing crackle and flicker. No need to gift wrap because of the woven bag that wraps this candle. Burns about 40 hours.

The California Scented Candle by Baxter is a Soy Wax candle in a distinctly masculine tumbler that is large enough for a triple bourbon on the rocks. Its woodsy scent is from Bergamot which is oil from the rind of the dwarf Bergamot Orange Tree, Mandarin, Mission Fig and Santalum which is oil from the Sandalwood tree and Vetiver, a bitter grassy scent. To some, this aroma is reminiscent of freshly mowed lawns. The California Scented Candle lasts a very long 100 hours.

Barber shops have historically been favorite male hangouts. The Tompkins scented man candle sold by Blind Barber produces a whiff of the best scents of the barber shop experience. The Tompkins candle smells like freshly laundered towels, honey, smoke, lavender and leather.
